A literature search was performed to identify new publications that pertained to these key questions, assisted by two librarians experienced in literature searches for pulmonary diseases. Literature retrieved from Medline searches between 2000 and 2011 was used to produce this statement. The committee was divided into subgroups assigned to specific sections of the document. These subgroups reviewed the relevant literature and produced the first draft of their respective sections.

Predictors of underlying CTD included female gender, Background: Although usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) appears to portend better survival when associated with connective tissue disease (CTD-UIP), little is known about the presenting clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features that differentiate pathologically confirmed UIP with CTD from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In patients with atypical radiologic and clinical features, what specific findings predict underlying IPF vs. CTD-UIP diagnosis and their respective long term survival? Methods: A large retrospective cohort analysis was done of consecutive patients seen from 1995 through 2010 with biopsy confirmed UIP completed or reviewed at our institution. CTD-UIP was defined by independent rheumatology consultation with exclusion of all other secondary causes of lung fibrosis. Primary clinical data was collected and compared for IPF and CTD-UIP along with logistic regression performed for predictors of disease likelihood and Cox proportional hazards analysis for predictors of survival. younger age, positive autoimmune serology, and inconsistent presenting radiologic findings. Only age and forced vital capacity corrected for a priori covariates were predictive of survival in CTD-UIP. Conclusions: UIP pathology occurs frequently Moya among et al, Rpatients espir with Res atypically 2014 presenting clinical and radiologic features, and may represent IPF or CTD-UIP with improved prognosis if underlying CTD is diagnosed. Presenting radiologic and pathologic features alone are not predictive of underlying secondary cause or survival between the two groups. Keywords: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, Usual interstitial pneumonia, Connective-tissue disease interstitial lung disease Introduction Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) is characterized by temporally heterogenous parenchymal fibrosis with architectural distortion, interstitial thickening, fibroblast foci, and honeycombing [1]. Although a defining pathologic finding in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), it has been found in other chronic fibrotic lung disease such as the connective tissue-disease associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) [2,3], chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) [4], sarcoidosis [5], and advanced asbestosis [6]. * Correspondence: [email protected] Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Mayo Clinic, 200 First St. SW, Rochester, MN 55901, USA Current classification of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIP) allows not only pathological distinction of fibrotic disease, but implied characteristic clinical and prognostic significance [7]. For example, it is well known that UIP has worse prognosis than non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), the two most commonly presenting pathologies [8,9]. Both again may be idiopathic or associated with known etiologies, which has clinical significance in terms of survival and response to therapy [10]. Prior studies have suggested secondary UIP such as that seen in certain connective-tissue diseases (CTD-UIP) may have better prognosis and survival than IPF [2,10]. Other studies have been conflicting regarding better survival in difficult to diagnose CTD or all CTD-ILD [11,12]. Specific © 2014 Moua et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.

Walsh et al, Thorax 2013 bronchiectasis when compared with patients assigned a diagnosis of fibrotic NSIP or deemed to have an indeterminate HRCT pattern of disease (table 3). Honeycombing was identified in 21 cases (RA=10, SScl=3, MCTD=4, PM=0, SLE=3, Sjögren’s disease=1) and was the least frequent pattern identified overall. Traction bronchiectasis was identified in 125 cases (RA=33, SScl=22, MCTD=27, PM=26, SLE=8, Sjögren’s disease=9). All 15 cases assigned a radiological diagnosis of UIP had honeycombing and traction bronchiectasis on HRCT. On univariable analysis, ground glass opacification was the only parenchymal pattern, which was not associated with increased mortality (table 4). Radiological diagnosis was strongly associated with mortality (table 4, figure 4). On multivariable analysis, increasing severity of traction bronchiectasis, increasing extent of honeycombing and reduction in DLco independently associated with increased mortality (table 5). These results remained independently associated with increased mortality on subgroup analysis in patients with a radiological diagnosis of NSIP (and those with a radiological diagnosis of UIP (see online supplementary appendix, table 1)). On the basis of these results, the continuous traction bronchiectasis scores and honeycombing scores for each patient were converted to a simple binary absence/presence score. Interobserver agreement for the absence/presence of traction bronchiectasis was good (κw=0.69) and for the absence/presence of honeycombing was moderate (κw=0.50). A multivariable analysis, substituting the continuous traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing scores for these binary scores again demonstrated that the binary scores and DLco were the only variables independently associated with increased mortality (traction bronchiectasis absent/ present=HR 4.00, p=0.001, 95% CI 1.19 to 13.38, Akuu\ HR 95% CI Total interstitial disease extent Ground-glass opacification Fine reticulation Coarse reticulation Honeycombing Traction bronchiectasis Radiological diagnosis FVC %predicted FEV1%predicted DLco %predicted 1.02 0.99 1.04 1.06 1.13 1.10 4.37 0.99 0.98 0.96 1.01 0.97 1.01 1.01 1.07 1.05 2.20 0.98 0.42 0.94 to to to to to to to to to to p Value 1.04 1.02 1.06 1.11 1.19 1.15 8.62 1.01 1.02 0.99 Krooninen progressiivinen sis’ score, are associated with increasing mortality.4 <0.001 0.753 0.001 0.014 <0.001 <0.001 <0.001 0.394 0.511 <0.001 CTD-FLD, connective tissue disease related fibrotic lung disease.

Patients for whom a histopathological diagnosis was available were divided into four categories be based upon a applied to CTD-FLD. First, CTD-FLD does not directly combination of the assigned radiological and established histoexactly replicate idiopathic fibrotic lung disease on histopathopathological diagnoses; (1) radiological and histopathological logical analysis. Fewer fibroblastic foci, prominent lymphoid gerdiagnosis of UIP (n=13—concordant UIP), (2) radiological diagminal centres, lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates and distinctive ILD ilmenee kun CTD jatkunut jo pitkään myofibroblast morphology are distinguishing features of Walsh et al, Thorax 2013 CTD-FLD.10 11 28 29 Second and most importantly, CTD-FLD appears to have a more favourable prognosis than fibrotic IIP.12 15 30 Despite these differences, our study has shown that traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing are also important predictors of mortality in CTD-FLD. The prognostic strength of traction bronchiectasis in our study is an important finding. Honeycombing is a cardinal fibrotic pattern on CT and most studies have focused the prognostic impact of this pattern4 26 rather than traction bronchiectasis. However, the interobserver agreement for the identification of honeycombing is surprisingly poor,31 32 best highlighted by Lynch et al who reported observer agreement levels for honeycombing among expert thoracic radiologists in a cohort of 315 patients with IPF as scarcely acceptable for clinical practice (weight κ coefficient of agreement no greater than 0.31).4 More recently, Watadani et al specifically quantified interobserver agreement for the presence of honeycombing among a large group of thoracic and non-thoracic radiologists as moderate (weighted κ coefficient of agreement=0.40–0.58).33 Disagreement was in most cases due to the presence of subpleural pathology mimicking honeycombing such as traction bronchiolectasis, paraseptal emphysema and subpleural cysts. These findings raise doubts as to whether honeycombing can always be relied upon as a prognostic CT pattern in routine clinical practice. The results of our study support those of others confined to IIPs3 5 9 and suggest that traction bronchiectasis may be a superior alternative CT sign for prognostication purposes in the CTD-FLDs Clinical applicability is an important consideration in a study of this kind. The continuous traction bronchiectasis and honeycombing scores are not easily applied to clinical practice and this led to the testing of a simplified binary absent/present score of these two patterns. Our study shows that simply the presence of traction bronchiectasis was a significantly more powerful prognostic index than the presence of honeycombing. Importantly, determining the absence or presence of traction bronchiectasis had a higher level of observer agreement than ILD CTD:n ensimmäisenä manifestaaDona 5 7 26 Subgroup analysis in patients with surgical lung biopsy data recently, two studies have demonstrated that increasing severity (n=51) • Kun tutkitaan IIP-‐poDlasta on syytä muistaa e:ä kyseessä voi olla myös CTD-‐ILD:n ensimmäinen manifestaaDo • ErityisesD tämä kanna:aa muistaa NSIP ja OP-‐ poDlaiden kohdalla, mu:a myös UIP/IPF-‐ epäilyissä nosis of fibrotic NSIP or indeterminate, with histopathological diagnosis of UIP (n=12—discordant UIP) (3) radiological diagnosis of UIP or indeterminate, with histopathological diagnosis of NSIP (n=9, discordant NSIP) and (4) radiological and histopathological diagnosis of fibrotic NSIP (n=17, Table concordant 5 Multivariable HRs for mortality according to HRCT and NSIP) This radiological-histopathological distinction wasindices in CTD-FLD (n=168) pulmonary strongly associated with increased mortality (HR 2.65, Variable UIP HR 95% CI p Value p<0.001, 95% CI 1.67 to 4.99).

Swigris, DO The usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern of lung injury may occur in the setting of connective tissue disease (CTD), but it is most commonly found in the absence of a known cause, in the clinical context of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Our objective was to observe and compare longitudinal changes in pulmonary function and survival between patients with biopsy-proven UIP found in the clinical context of either CTD or IPF. BACKGROUND: We used longitudinal data analytic models to compare groups (IPF [n 5 321] and CTD-UIP [n 5 56]) on % predicted FVC (FVC %) or % predicted diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (Dlco %), and we used both unadjusted and multivariable techniques to compare survival between these groups. METHODS: RESULTS: There were no significant differences between groups in longitudinal changes in FVC % or Dlco % up to diagnosis, or from diagnosis to 10 years beyond (over which time, the mean decrease in FVC % per year [95% CI] was 4.1 [3.4, 4.9] for IPF and 3.5 [1.8, 5.1] for CTD-UIP, P 5 .49 for difference; and the mean decrease in Dlco % per year was 4.7 [4.0, 5.3] for IPF and 4.3 [3.0, 5.6] for CTD-UIP, P 5 .60 for difference). Despite the lack of differences in pulmonary function, subjects with IPF had worse survival in unadjusted (log-rank P 5 .003) and certain multivariable analyses. Figure 1 – A, B, Change in FVC% (A) or DLCO% (B) over time for sample stratified on clinical context of UIP. Points represent observed values, with fitted (predicted) functions for groups (blue 5 IPF, red 5 CTD-UIP) superimposed; predicted means are solid, 95% confidence bands are dashed. Predicted values were obtained using mixed-model fits, using knots (ie, allowing change points) at 20.5, 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 y from diagnosis. A spatial power covariance structure was included in the model to account for repeated measures within subjects; random effect terms for subjects were also included, as described in e-Appendix 1. There were no significant differences between groups for segments between comparable time points. The plots demonstrate sharper declines near time of diagnosis for both groups. CTD-UIP 5 connective tissue disease-related usual interstitial pneumonia; DLCO% 5 % predicted diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide; FVC% 5 % predicted FVC; IPF 5 idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Despite no significant differences in changes in pulmonary function over time, patients with CTD-UIP (at least those with certain classifiable CTDs) live longer than patients with IPF—an observation that we suspect is due to an increased rate of mortal acute exacerbations in patients with IPF.

Statistical analysis Evidence for the effectiveness of rituximab as ‘‘rescue’’ therapy in patients with severe, life-threatening ILD is limited [20, 21]. We report the use of rituximab as rescue therapy in eight patients with underlying features of CTD, and exceedingly severe fibrotic lung disease, progressing in spite of vigorous conventional immunosuppression. METHODS Patient groups Review of our medical records and hospital pharmacy prescribing database identified all patients treated with rituximab between December 2007 and December 2010. All consecutive patients with severe, progressive CTD-ILD were included in our analysis, with a total of eight patients. No patients with CTDILD were excluded due to poor outcome or early death. A minimum of 9 months post treatment follow-up was available for all patients. ILD occurred in association with polymyositis or dermatomyositis (PM/DM) in five patients, of whom four had anti-synthetase Jo-1 antibody. In two patients, ILD 642 VOLUME 40 NUMBER 3 All patients had PFT follow up of at least 9 months following rituximab. In the six patients with PFT data prior to rituximab treatment, the significance of median DL,CO and forced vital capacity (FVC) percentage change before and after treatment was assessed by Wilcoxon signed rank test. To evaluate statistical significance of response to treatment in all patients, categorical variables of change (worse, stable, improved) were generated by combining significant changes in pulmonary function tests (defined as a change in FVC of o10% and/or a change in DL,CO of o15%) and/or clinical status (for the two patients requiring mechanical ventilation, the requirement for mechanical ventilation was classified as a significant deterioration). Change was assessed 9–12 months before and after rituximab, and analysed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. A p-values of o0.05 was considered statistically significant. Analysis of follow-up data at 9–12 months was chosen based upon previously reported responses of CTD-ILD to rituximab [18, 19], and the expected duration of B cell ablation following rituximab [10, 15]. EUROPEAN RESPIRATORY JOURNAL 7 that a subset of this patient population may eventually meet the criteria for a well-defined CTD. These findings demonstrate that identification of subtle CTD clinical features, when associated with presence of auto-antibodies, do impact on the clinical and imaging presentation of ILD and are associated with distinct attributes. In other words, subtle manifestations of CTD should be considered in a patient evaluated for ILD, even if overt CTD criteria are not fulfilled. In another study, CORTE et al. [6] elegantly demonstrated that the proportion of patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonia that fulfil UCTD criteria is dependent on the criteria used (table 3). Using ‘‘broad criteria’’ [5], UCTD could be diagnosed in 36% of patients with IPF and in 71% of patients with NSIP, whereas UCTD was considered to be present in only 13% and 21%, respectively, of the same patients groups using the more stringent criteria of UCTD [40]. The presence of UCTD was associated with a higher frequency of NSIP histopathology [6]. 18/04/15 In a recent study, FISCHER et al. [17] suggested the terminology of lung-dominant CTD to account for the subset of patients with interstitial pneumonia who have clinical features suggesting an associated CTD, but the features fall short of a clear diagnosis of CTD under the current rheumatologic classification systems. The proposed provisional criteria for this condition include four criteria: 1) a histological or radiological pattern of NSIP, UIP, lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia, organising pneumonia or diffuse alveolar damage; 2) insufficient extra-thoracic features of a definite CTD to allow a specific CTD designation; 3) no identifiable alternative aetiology for interstitial pneumonia; 4) any one of a list of auto-antibodies or at least two of four predefined histopathology features (lymphoid aggregates with germinal centres, extensive pleuritis, prominent plasmacytic infiltration and dense perivascular collagen). Such provisional conceptual classification carries the advantage of setting the stage for future studies of the prognostic, therapeutic and pathobiological implications of CTD features in patients with ILD. However, the proposed criteria need further refinement based on evidence, especially since they imply that patients may be classified as having UCTD:n diagnosDset kriteerit Epäspesifinen sidekudostauD ja ILD TABLE 3 Diagnostic criteria for undifferentiated connective tissue disease (UCTD) UCTD diagnostic criteria Broader definition of UCTD • UndifferenDated connecDve Dssue disease A.

We also confirmed that among the patients with UCTD, the overall prognosis was better for patients with the NSIP pattern than those with the UIP pattern, although not significant on multivariate analysis. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significant difference between UCTD-UIP and IPF; the presence of UCTD in the patients with the UIP pattern was a significant independent prognostic factor on multivariate analysis. Previously, Corte et al4 reported that UCTD was not associated with a survival benefit, which may be due to smaller numbers (total 101 patients) of the subject compared with ours. Recently, Strand et al21 also reported that there was no significant difference in survival between UCTD-UIP and IPF. However, the number of their subjects was small (UCTD-UIP: 19 patients).
